It was another exciting day of sailing and beach fun at the 20th Annual Fools’ Regatta. A great community event with proceeds from this year’s event going to the Turks and Caicos Islands Football Association Youth Programme.
Our Steel Band entertained the crowds with the Caribbean sounds of the steel drums. It was a first community performance for some of the children although the school band has participated for over 10 years. Everyone did really well and enjoyed playing on the beach.
The Great Raft Race was a highlight for many, with Provo Primary entering 2 rafts. The ‘Dragons’ and ‘Poseidon’s Vessel’. Spirits were high and everyone rowed their hardest in the gusty winds and choppy waves. We once again we won the Vindaloo Cup for best overall team spirit and design. Great participation, well done everyone!
A big thank you to the raft team mentors for coaching and guiding the teams through the raft building process, sourcing materials, and their much needed technical support. Also to everyone who helped transport the steel drums to and from the event.
Until next year!
